=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
bytes - Perl pragma to force byte semantics rather than character semantics
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
use bytes;
|
|
no bytes;
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
WARNING: The implementation of Unicode support in Perl is incomplete.
|
|
See L<perlunicode> for the exact details.
|
|
|
|
The C<use bytes> pragma disables character semantics for the rest of the
|
|
lexical scope in which it appears. C<no bytes> can be used to reverse
|
|
the effect of C<use bytes> within the current lexical scope.
|
|
|
|
Perl normally assumes character semantics in the presence of
|
|
character data (i.e. data that has come from a source that has
|
|
been marked as being of a particular character encoding).
|
|
|
|
To understand the implications and differences between character
|
|
semantics and byte semantics, see L<perlunicode>.
